My personal all-time favorite - https://www.newschoolers.com/news/read/Moving-Newschoolers

The funny part about this one is as obvious as it was at the time - TONNES of people believed it. Hell, as recently as 6 months ago I've met people that say "Dude, you still work at NS? I thought you got a job in Florida or something like that a few years ago?"

Hell, the Senior VP of our division at the company was at a corporate retreat a few years back, and the CEO of the company apparently stood up in front of everyone, singled out Norb (SVP of Action/Outdoor) and said "Hey Norb - What is this I hear about sending one of your boys down to Florida without telling me?"

Maybe not the funniest prank, but damn did it go far and wide.

Absolute best one was the TBC2. I was so jacked haha, so bummed when I caught on. Flying people up to the Arctic cirlce and getting Tom Wallish on loan - classic

I also fell pretty fuckin hard for the Pay For Subscription for NS one. Both those were prime.

some people just don't realize when it goes too far, this was the first thing I saw in the morning and I got so stoked until 30 seconds later when I realized what day it was...
